change radiator very easy one lah.
quite fast job, prob is determining the cause of the leak.
sometimes, it might not be the radiator itself. could be a leak somewhere in the water return system or a faulty seal. less siong on the wallet then

did u hand itchy add any new type of coolant, other than BMW or water.
me did that previously, end up one of those return line caps which was rusting, leaked after adding that coolant.
as for radiator cap, u can take it out and turn it over, see whether the rubber ring thingy still complete.

Re: questions for E36 316i owners~
go to meet up... u know who and who loh
u better have it checked!! radiator cap is the easiest to check and simplest to replace
cos when the temp rises, hot steam will be shooting off the cap from the high pressure inside
also check for the little cap screw at the side to be properly tightened... not sure what its called but normally used to bleed extra coolant!!
cheers - hope it helps!
